If you work at HSBC and were one of the bankers laid off and not given a bonus—would love to hear the inside tea 😂😭☠️

Ouch. Sorry to hear that.

Morgan Stanley did that to my friend a few years ago. Laid off his entire team except for him having to stay to help transition the work to the oversea team. Yet also told him they would let him go by YE and didn't give him his bonus from LAST YEAR. Like WT**** x 4.

He ended up finding a new job before YE. The company had the audacity asking him to stay to finish the transition. Months later, they called him back because the oversea team failed miserably.

I'm not Gen Z, but it really is time we demand a reciprocal relationship and respect from our employers.

That was such a dickish move on HSBC’s part. I would have set fire to the building if they did that to me.

Should I leave my first permanent job as a team leader of 4 DPs in a FMCG business (only been there for 4 months) to join a huge Tech business for a 12months contract?

They offer me 60% more money than my permanent role. Circa 2000 dollars every month in my pocket

However, I am worried if I accept the tech role and I do not become permanent I will be looking again for a job in 12-24 months and my CV won't be showing a managerial position. Won't be showing any progress.
